Performing with the Keyboard

Adding Reverberation to the Sound (REVERB knob)

The RD-700 can apply a reverb effect to the notes you play on the keyboard. Applying reverb adds pleasing reverberation to what you play, so it sounds almost as if you were playing in a concert hall.

Adjust the REVERB knob to select the amount of reverb effect

to be applied.

Rotating the knob clockwise applies a deeper reverb, and rotating it counterclockwise applies less reverb.

For more detailed information about the reverb effect settings, refer to “Making Reverb Settings” (p. 78).

NOTE

When the Tone Edit’s Reverb Amount setting in the Edit mode is set to “0,” then no effect is applied, even when the REVERB knob is turned (p. 80).

Adding Breadth to the Sound (CHORUS knob)

You can apply a chorus effect to the notes you play on the keyboard. By adding the chorus effect, you can give the sound greater dimension, with more fatness and breadth.
